Klöverblad Wallpaper
Green clover leaves wind their way across a white background. The Klöverblad (Cloverleaf) wallpaper features a clean and simple motif, designed by Josef Frank in the 1940s. The design is calm and harmonious, distinguishing itself from Josef Frank’s often lively world of prints. Upon closer inspection, two four-leaf clovers can be discovered in the billowing repeat.
Josef Frank’s Wallpapers
Josef Frank always designed different kinds of prints for specific purposes. He never used fabric patterns for wallpapers or wallpaper patterns for fabrics, but made sure that each pattern had a unique use.
– Josef Frank“Bright colours and powerful patterns can take away the feeling
of confinement. Even a pokey little cubicle can become exciting with striking wallpaper.”
Printing Josef Frank’s wallpaper
